Natura-cuerpo (Nature – body

1995
Colour photography, 35mm film
12 images / 20 x 30 cm each piece

The series of photographs, Natura-Cuerpo, (1996) documents the intervention of twelve sculptures in the intimate space of the body –of the artists– and in the exterior space of nature –the orchard and vegetable garden at Arteleku–. A dialogue and dialectic is created between both places and the same piece flows between both of them to form a transformative vision from the intimate sphere to nature, in a continuum of being in time. These anthropomorphic pieces, fetishes modelled in intense, exotic and sensual colours, have dual associations: to the fruit of the tree of life and to desire.
